Wonky Trapezoid card set- Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Release

Good morning! It's time for the yearly STAMPtember Party with Simon Says Stamp with almost 90 crafters participating in a huge celebrations. Stamptember is a month to celebrate all things stamping! It kicks off with a HUGE SSS release, and this fun party of inspiration today - with a scavenger hunt for some great promos as well!


There are different sales throughout the blog party, so hop along to choose which one you want to use! I'm sharing this one for the gorgeous Fancy Love die - FREE with any purchase! Use code FLVE to take advantage of this through Sunday, September 3 at 11:59 PM!


I'm kicking off my first share of this release with this trio of cards featuring the fun new Wonky Trapezoid cling background stamp set, to create some clean and simple card designs!


I started off by stamping the background and heat embossing in white. Then I masked off different sections to ink blend for an emboss resist look. One I did in warm tones of Watermelon, Pucker, and Citrine. The second one I did in cool tones of Fairway, Ocean, and Cadette. And the final one I did citrus colors - Sunbeam, Sherbet, and Dublin. I layered sentiments over that created by hot foiling the main sentiments from Elegantly Modern Greetings hot foil plates, cut out with the coordinating dies. I popped those up on foam, then added supporting secondary sentiments with the Elegantly Modern Greetings stamp set, stamped in black, trimmed into thin strips, and mounted with foam as well. I finished off by adding a few coordinating Ombre Glitter Drops from Pinkfresh Studio in Pixie Dust, Enchanted Forest, and Sparkle and Shine! Here are more photos - and close ups of each of these cards:

  13. Love that you used just a portion of this background die. I think it's more striking.
